The Torn Sky blast worked fully as intended, as the roof of the Sky Temple was torn asunder. The thunderbolt was more powerful than Raiden's thunder powers, since he had assumed the form of a normal deity inside the Elder God's jurisdiction. Even then, this would have been a lightning attack that would have made Raiden impressed. This attack, originating from a mortal, even a mortal ninja from the Hayabusa Clan, would be something unmatched for quite a long time. The demonic Elder god Shinnok felt the thunderbolt rend his diabolic flesh. Fire and brimstone poured from his body, until he exploded. The Amulet, Kamidogu was the only thing keeping Shinnok alive, as he crawled back to the Shinsuei to finish Corrupting it. It was his only hope. However, the thunder bolt continued to strike through him, until it knocked Shinnok's amulet from his hand.
The Earth's skies became more and more corrupted, until at least, the blue light emanated from the other side of Shinnok's body to outside his chest, in front of his face he saw the thunderbolt explode through the flesh, demolishing the Sky Temple wall inside the Shinsuei's chambers. The Sky Temple was beginning to be totally demolished. Ryu's eyes closed, slowing, he could hear his heart beat, his neck crack. . Suddenly he felt the presence of someone. . . friendly. Carrying him with Ninja's grace, Rachel made it to the Portal Room.
Ryu Hayabusa was soon revived. Some mortals could even survive what Doctor's call "internal decapitation". The Shao Lin's best healers, combined with medical surgeons needed in World War III, the war against Shinnok, had to offer. Earth Realm had won again.
